Relevant Databases

The indexes below are among the best to use when performing research in anthropology. For an expanded listing of possible resources, see the Anthropology listing in the Electronic Databases by Subject. Use the Journal Finder to help you locate the full-text of articles you have identified in one or more of the indexes listed here. Just type in the title of the journal to see where it is available. If we do not have access to it, you can request the article via ILLiad, our interlibrary loan program, which is linked below.

AGRICOLA (AGRICultural OnLine Access) serves as the catalog and index to the collections of the National Agricultural Library, as well as a primary public source for world-wide access to agricultural information. The database covers materials in all formats and periods, including printed works from as far back as the 15th century.

Although the NAL Catalog (AGRICOLA) does not contain the text of the materials it cites, thousands of its records are linked to full-text documents online, with new links added daily. Citations only.

The NAL Catalog (AGRICOLA) is organized into two bibliographic data sets:

The NAL Online Public Access Catalog contains citations to books, audiovisuals, serials, and other materials, most of which are in the Library's collection. (The Catalog does contain some records for items not held at NAL.)
The Article Citation Database includes citations, many with abstracts, to journal articles (see Journals Indexed in AGRICOLA), book chapters, reports, and reprints, selected primarily from the materials found in the NAL Catalog.
Both data sets are updated daily with newly cataloged and indexed materials. Each may be searched separately, or the two may be searched together. The literature cited is primarily in English, but over one-third of the database comprises citations in Western European, Slavic, Asian, and African languages.

AIO provides indexing to a vast collection of anthropological literature held by the Anthropology Library at the British Museum, with coverage back to 1957. Because some of the journals are somewhat obscure, it is likely that many articles you find will need to be requested via interlibrary loan. Citations only.
